WANT HELLA-FLUSH FITMENT?
SERVICING- GOLD COAST – BRISBANE – IPSWICH – LOGAN
Guard rolling can be applied to most makes and model of cars. Guard rolling is generally required when planning to lower your car or going for aggressive wheel fitment. Rolling the guards can provide essential clearance between the bodywork and the wheel. This extra space is important to avoid tire contact. This can remove scrubbing without having to worry about damaging paint, wheels or tyres.
How guard rolling works
Guard or fender rolling involves folding the inner lip of the wheel arch. This creates a tighter ‘V’ shape or a ‘U’ shape. The purpose is to increase the space between the wheel arch and the tyre.
The spot-welded double metal lip of the rear guards can be pressed completely. This applies all the way around the inner side of the arch. The same applies to the single-skinned lip of the front wheel arch. This is done by using a rolling machine that bolts onto the wheel hub.
The guard rolling technique varies with each car. Success depends on the condition of the paintwork or earlier repairs to the area. If the paint is original, there is usually no cracking or paint damage.
disclaimer
Rolling of rear guards on all VE & VF model Commodores will result in slight distortion.
Rear guards for Holden VT-VU/VZ utes, coupes and wagons may incur extra cost. The cost depends on whether the full arch or only the top needs to be rolled.
Please note that each guard rolling job is different and our prices do vary. Disclaimer: SEDUCTIVE AUTO does not guarantee that the paintwork will remain undamaged after rolling guards on any vehicle. In all cases, any risk will be identified to the client prior to the work commencing. SEDUCTIVE AUTO cannot promise that the metal will not ripple. This includes distortion, denting, or misshaping of the area rolled. Every effort will be made to identify this possibility before work starts. Measures will be taken to prevent it.
The outcome of rolling can vary under several conditions. It can vary if the car is over 10 years old or if the arch has been repaired. The presence of body filler under the paintwork around the wheel arch can also affect it. Modifications to the car in any way or holes drilled around the wheel arch can lead to variations as well.
